ETA Signs Joint Trade Letter Opposing Section 407 of S. 754, the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act (CISA)

(Before It's News)

November 19th,

In general, we believe the House and Senate bills are consistent with the goal of enhancing our nation’s ability to defend against cyber attacks. However, we have significant concern with Section 407 of the Senate bill (S. 754). This provision is simply at odds with the overall goal of a comprehensive, voluntary information sharing framework, and should it survive the process, could jeopardize our support for the underlying Conference Report. Moreover, we are concerned that this provision has not been adequately vetted in the same manner as the rest of the legislation and therefore could have unintended consequences that would impact the effectiveness of voluntary information sharing.
